Procedure Declaration Errors

Question:
I get the folling error message when I try to run my code:

Compile Error: Procedure declaration does not match description of event or procedure having the same name.

How can I fix this?

Answer:
If I start seeing Procedure declaration errors, my first action is to copy the code from the event handler, delete the event handler, and then add it by picking it from the menus. Then I copy the code back in. That’s the most reliable way to make sure you have the right event handler declaration.
